The service and food were excellent! We sat at the bar for brunch. Our server was SO pleasant and attentive while she multitasked her bar duties! The restaurant has great "homemade style" choices for breakfast, lunch & dinner! I started with the creamy crab and corn chowder which had a little "kick" of spice. Both my husband's and my meals were cooked and presented well. The portions were filling but not too much. They have wonderful mixed drinks that can be virgin or not! We had a virgin Guava Mango Ginger ale. It was refreshing, flavorful and not sweet. We will be bringing family back on our next visit! read more

I highly recommend this place if you're in the area and want something different. They have huge portions and great prices. The server was on point. read more

Just another, typical Silver Diner... the food was decent, the service was a mixed bag of friendliness and inconsistent attention. I ordered a side chili with my food, but it wasn't until I was nearly done with my entrée that I was informed that they were out of chili. Their crab cake was excellent and loaded with nice crab meat. The food the others in our group got looked pretty good as well and they enjoyed it. Overall, if they picked up their service and were more attentive and less distracted, this would be a much better restaurant. read more

I don't think I've ever felt more welcomed than today thanks to Martin our server this morning. Broke down the new menu for us and had such a great attitude. The food was also really delicious, hot and came out perfect. read more

Fish and chips were not fresh the fish was a frozen product fried.I mentioned it to the manager and she said it was frozen then expressed she made a mistake it's fresh. read more

We've been to this Silver Diner plenty of times and during different times of the day, and the more we frequent it, the more we enjoy that it's becoming a go-to! Although at first, breakfast/brunch items were what I'd typically get (love the pancakes!) I've lately really enjoyed their appetizers and dinner meals. The burrata bruschetta is an absolute stand-out, their wings were good, and my latest meal, the tuna melt, was awesome, especially with a side of tomato bisque. Beyond the food, service is consistently good, friendly, and welcoming. read more

This is a pretty solid Silver Diner. Got the seasonal special Chipotle Salmon and Shrimp and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything was delicious. Don't sleep on the Guava Mint Ginger Ale! Glad they have a variety of non-alcoholic beverages for diners. Good service and friendly staff. I didn't get it this time but the Burrata Bruschetta is a must whenever you visit a Silver Diner. read more

Silver Diner - Chipotle Salmon & Shrimp - New American Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

Paola service was wonderful!! We got the American favorite it was delicious and hot. Biscuits were hot and tasty. Thank you!!

Friendly fast service even during a busy, peak lunch shift? Score! Aside from the fact that I love Silver Diner's healthy and vegetarian-friendly options, I respect a team who can shuffle around getting orders in quick and out right AND still help their tables with a smile. From Pick-Two lunch options (soup, salad or sandwich combo), corned beef sandwich, fish n chips, short-rib burger and even pancakes from the kids menu, everything has good flavor. If you're wondering how "kickin" the crab and corn chowder is, it's pretty mild. (Good for me) read more

Note: this is a chain. Music from the 50s to the 80's plays overhead at a gentle volume. Don't expect just your typical diner fare when you're here.. It's been modernized and revised With healthier options while still keeping some of the oldies but goodies. Coffee and tea and fresh brewed iced tea as well as soft drinks are bottomless. When you get a cup of coffee you're not given a spoon or a stirrer so I went looking for set ups and they only come with forks and knives. That's OK I used my knife to stir the cream in my coffee No creamers or butter on the table so you have to get what they decide is right for you. I asked for my second cup of coffee and it was brought to me without creamers. So i just asked someone else who worked here and all they did was call my waitress from across the place so that was pretty embarrassing. The food here is really good. The pancakes are awesome. The bacon is fabulous. The coffee is really good. Its just the basic service is lacking. - You should get a spoon or stirrer with your coffee. - You Should be asked if you need cream or milk with your subsequent cups of coffee since there's none on the table. - If you get pancakes and they deliver the syrup In a teeny tiny little pitcher They should ask you if you have everything you need. Or stop Back to find out. I'm sorry but having to track my server down 3 or 4 times is unacceptable. And then when I was clearly finished I waited 15 minutes for my check even though I had my food and coffee cup pushed to the edge of the table as a sign. Some reviews also mentioned service as an issue so ill keep an eye out to see if its worth giving Silver another chance. I'd like to try back in order to up the stars. read more

I came here with a few girl friends over the weekend for brunch. Our server Meghan was great and super friendly! She recommended the iced brewchata drink and it was absolutely delicious! We started with the salmon avocado toast for the table and it was a great size and really good. For my meal I ordered a bacon and cheese omelette that came with a biscuit and home fries. I really enjoyed the omelette and biscuit but the home fries I felt could have used some extra seasoning and weren't as crispy as I had expected. Our waitress even let us split our checks three different ways at the end, which I appreciated because most servers I encounter never want to split them. I'll definitely be back here again! read more

Silver Diner - Salmon avocado toast - New American Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

Sadly, Silver Diner is now "off the list." While the food is generally good or very good quality, the value is too low for this to be a destination any longer. For my family of four, the total was $94. No appetizer for the table, no alcohol, no desserts. Two of us left hungry. There is nothing "deluxe" about their grilled cheese deluxe. It's strikingly small and comes with lukewarm thin fries. We didn't realize until after it was finished, that they never gave us the ginger-cranberry sauce that was supposed to come with it. My vegan smash burger was thin, as one would expect, but it was pretty insubstantial in size, and there was nothing impressive about the bun, the lack of slaw topping, or the disappointing size of lukewarm, tasteless fries. My son ordered an appetizer as a meal and added a side of fries to his order as well. Again, it was a cheapo portion. Think about how Five Guys impresses with their fries. Is Silver Diner intentionally trying to disappoint its diners? At decent prices, the serving sizes might be overlooked, but $18.99 for a pasta? At a diner? $12.49 for a small grilled cheese and a small amount of fries? $9.79 for a shake (though they at least give you extra in a metal mixing container)? At the time we ate - between lunch and dinner - there were only a handful of tables occupied, but still the service was lacking. It took too long for the shake to come out, well after the other drinks. The waitress, who was pleasant enough, only came around once to ask us how things were doing. I asked for a coke refill. Over 10 minutes later, she returned saying "I thought I brought this to you." then walked away without asking if we needed anything else. The next time we saw her, she was holding a credit card reader. Delightfully, the pay-at-the-table reader suggested tips of 20, 22, and 25 percent. I overrode the suggestions and left a reasonable amount based on the actual service quality. Sorry, but at nearly $100 ($25 a person), there are much better values out there. read more

My son refered to today's breakfast at the Silver Diner as a "skill issue". Nothing was 'bad', but it appears that the kitchen is disorganized. Starting with the best parts, the ambience of the restaurant is fine. It is similar to the Silver diner in Rockville, which I have taken my family to many times. Personal service was also fine. The wait person was friendly, professional, and cheerful. Apparently it was her 50th birthday, and she treated everybody in our area like we were extensions of her family. I give her credit for making the best of some unfortunate errors. The food was problematic. The coffee arrived cool. Not hot, not lukewarm, but the temperature of tapwater. We placed our orders when the coffee came, and received our food relatively quickly. Unfortunately, parts of the order were incorrect. My basted eggs came out poached; my apple chicken sausages came out as bacon. When I questioned the eggs, I was told that this was how their chef made fried eggs. I didn't make an issue of it, assuming that the cook didn't know what 'basted' meant, and my son's food was fine. It turned out that several orders were mixed together. The waitperson checked, and eventually brought out additional fried eggs and sausage. They did warm up our coffee with a new pot, which was great. The orange juice that I had ordered as part of the meal never did arrive. The new order of eggs were slightly overcooked, with solid yokes. The potatoes were cooked, but were soft and flavorless. We ended up taking our food to go. As I mentioned, the service was noteworthy, and we may try the restaurant again, but on an afternoon or evening shift instead of the morning shift. read more

First time here and certainly not the last! The food was great and I was surprised to see such a vast menu of options! We ordered the Bison and tortillas dish, the Crabcake melt with lobster dipping sauce, and the Waffles with eggs and turkey bacon side. Everything turned out amazing! Everything was so good, we decided to later order a kids meal (although we didn't have a kid at our table) of the turkey with mashed potatoes and gravy entree, for just because! That was yummy too! It came with a side of seasoned veggies (cauliflower, broccoli, snap peas, carrots) and ginger cranberry sauce. We washed it all down a $10 milkshake to share! I think the teenagers picked the chunky monkey flavor, they said it was too overpowering of bananas so you have been warned! They enjoyed it, but would not pick it again! All in all, it was a great time had by all! The restaurant was busy enough that we didn't feel lonely. The tables were clean and the vibe was fresh and good! Will definitely come again! read more

Everything! Our food (eggs benedict) was scrumptious. Our waiter, Devon, was so sweet, efficient and fun! I would recommend it!!

I've never heard of this diner and thought that it was just gonna be another regular diner when I realized they carefully made the menu of healthier ingredients and variety. I loveee that they added more vegetables and had so many more options for me to choose from. I had the chicken noodle soup, which was really homey, and then the chicken pot pie, which was unexpectedly not too heavy or light with a good mix of ingredients. It was all so satisfying. My friend got their new menu item, which was some pasta with lamb meatballs, and I had a taste and was especially surprised. I normally feel like pasta can get too heavy and taste the same after every bite, but this also had so many ingredients. Service was fast and polite. The ambiance is similar to what you normally imagine a diner to be: cozy and bright. read more

We love silver diner. The food is always excellent, and the service is great. It's an awesome option for vegetarians and kiddos. My daughter loves coming to Silver Diner. While she often gets the same thing (Belgian Waffel with Eggs and Bacon), they do offer a varied menu for kids. We love that the menu has several options for vegetarians. They even have vegan eggs and sausage! The restaurant is clean and open. It can get a bit noisy when it's really busy. read more

My word is all I can say. Do not go to this Silver Dine EVER. The food was very dry as u can see by the pic. First SD I have been to where the manager didn't walk around to see how things were going. It wasn't even busy. OUr waiter was nice but food took a while to come out and it was dry. This is what happens when you travel out side of Silver Spring Md Silver Diner where the food is fresh and well seasoned and NOT dry. Very disappointed. Will never return to this location. read more

1.1.22 Justice was our server and he was attentive. He brought us a stack of napkins without being asked. I had asked him about birthday offers before we placed our breakfast order as I didn't receive one this year. I was surprised he remembered to ask when he brought our order to us. Apparently now three visits annually are needed to receive a complimentary birthday offer. Years ago, I automatically received a complimentary entree and dessert without any restrictions. I haven't gone to the diner as frequently in recent years. My husband and I both ordered the Belgian waffle with scrambled eggs and bacon. Everything was good, but I would have preferred my bacon to be crispier. My husband and I both brought half of our waffles home. When I reheat it, I plan to toast it so it's crispier. I also ordered a hot chocolate and which came with whip cream. It was delicious, better than Starbucks IMO. My husband took a sip and thought it was too sweet. I have a sweet tooth so I loved it. I thought Justice provided exceptional service and our breakfast was good. read more

Silver Diner - Beef tenderloin - New American Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

Service was extremely slow for a group of 8. Incorrect mismatched orders & missing items that arrived by the end of the meal. However the biggest most complicated issue here was in requesting gluten free options; while they were accommodating and assuring, even confirming that the substitute toast was in fact gluten free. It really screwed up my weekend cause it was not actually gluten free and halfway through the meal they brought the gluten free alternative when someone in the party advocated for the mistake. As of August 2024, I can no longer recommend this place, especially if you are gluten free... if you can't do gluten it's not worth trusting the staff at this location with your digestive system, could ruin your weekend. read more

Our server Martin was wonderful! Food was great. My husband and I both had the hanger steak and eggs. Both steaks were tender and cooked perfectly. Martin brightened our day! read more

I'm a long time customer of this location. My server was nice, but I do feel that the service and food have slightly declined at this location. After the server brought my plate, I grabbed my silverware. The first thing that I pulled out was a for and it wasn't cleaned. It had a white substance on it. Possibly a dried napkin? I waited 5 mins for the server to return, and showed her my fork and asked for a plastic fork. She said okay and brought the plastic ware back. Again, the server (Alaina) was nice, but she never brought this to her managers attention. Maybe because in between serving, she was sitting at a table with another coworker stuffing the silverware that was allegedly clean into the paper holders. Also, I had a child size napkin on my plate that was presented to me sitting on top of Hollandaise sauce in the picture. Lastly, the food was just edible in comparison to most other times. More than likely, I will stick to eating here earlier in the day, and not the early evening. On a regular day and past experience, I give this Silver Diner Location (Elkridge) a solid 4. This time it's a generous three with me giving them the benefit of a doubt. read more

My friends eat breakfast here every week and love it. Yesterday we had a different experience. I would say my breakfast was one of the worst ever. I ordered a simple breakfast - 2 eggs scrambled, potatoes and ham. When it came the potatoes were cold (like not even cooked). The rest of the meal was not warm either. The manager ordered me a new batch of potatoes. They came after I was almost finished eating and they were also cold. I didn't eat them (and I love potatoes). A horrible experience. read more

I've been here a couple times always great service and servers. Love the classic diner ambiance. I got the Brussels sprouts last time and they were the best I've ever had. Unfortunately this time they weren't cooked enough and I asked for them to get cooked more and got new ones and they were better but still kinda hard not cooked in the middle. I didn't tell them but the server took them off our check for taking so look which was nice. I tried the watermelon shrimp salad and it was good. Bf got the steak with crab n corn chowder he said was good but the soup was spicy. My watermelon cucumber lemonade was delicious and so refreshing I love any place that offers mock-tail type drinks. read more

I'm so sad I don't have any Silver Diners near my house. Silver Diner was one of the first diners I've been to that have vegan options, which was a huge plus for my family and me! When we first sat down, we were distracted by the mini Jukebox system at the table. We all took turns choosing the songs that we wanted to hear play. Unfortunately, before we had to leave, we didn't hear any of our songs but it was still a cool experience to be able to see all of their choices throughout the Jukebox! Our waitress was very friendly and attentive! She was kind to talk to. The vegan option we ordered was the Meatless Tacos! My family devoured them! Lol If I ever see a Silver Diner again, I'm definitely stopping in! read more

WOW! Dashawn and Jamal were total rockstars! I came in on a Saturday night with a large group of over 40 people to celebrate my daughter's closing night of her last middle school play. Not only did the restaurant accommodate our loud and excited kids who were celebrating after a long day and two amazing performances, but they were cheerful and patient, dealing with many separate checks, and made the whole experience less stressful for us parents who were exhausted and still trying to manage all the crazy. And the food came out hot and quick, and orders were correct and everyone left full and satisfied. Many thanks!! read more

This was a basic diner. The Philly cheese steak was mid at best. Wasn't terrible but nothing I'd run back for.

I must say based on the name, exterior, and inside ambience this is definitely not what I was expecting, but the food and service was great nonetheless! I thought I was coming to a more old-school diner with your standard diner fare... while the ambience is diner, the menu is anything but. The menu had a ton of creative options and a lot of healthier dishes as well. The farm-to-table things pretty routine back home, but they were very into sharing all of the more local places from which they sourced their food. That's awesome no matter where you go, so I was a big fan even before we started eating and drinking. The big test came after ordering mimosas and whether we'd get a champagne flute filled with 75% orange juice. I was elated to be delivered a wine glass with a fantastically proportioned mimosa. I would come back here again and again just for that (it's a rare thing to find!), but on top of that the food was pretty good as well. Despite the varied menu options, I just went with the scrambled eggs/toast/potatoes... it's my true breakfast love. I do hate when I order scrambled eggs and get a folded omelet with nothing in it, and that is how my eggs came out. Not uncommon, but I had high hopes. The food was good, no complaints otherwise. Moreover, our server Lakesha was an absolute gem. She was so fun to chat with, was attentive, and just made us smile/laugh every time she came over. I definitely hope to make it back here. read more
